It is? How? Unless the committer signs (which ISTR was rejected as an option
when I suggested it, so I'm assuming that doesn't happen), then they must be
signed by the server - a successful attacker can therefore sign his
modifications, too. Or am I missing something? (I don't use subversion yet,
so forgive me if the answer is obvious).

We're talking about ensuring the integrity of the repository here, not whether malicious people can commit.

I know.


Uhm I beg to differ - I care about both issues :)

I didn't say I didn't care! I said I knew what we were talking about. I also care about malicious users.


Cheers,

Ben.
